According to their self-evaluation of health condition, 12.5% of the students considered their own health condition to be "poor". And as to the level of their physical fitness, 34.4% of the students rated their own physical fitness "low" range. As criteria of evaluating health condition, "weakness" "vitality" and "recovery from fatique" were chosen more frequently.
